A Daily Mail editorial criticises BBC Radio 4 for featuring the death of "leftwing American folk singer" Pete Seeger prominently in its 8am news bulletin on Tuesday at the expense of "the latest heartening growth figures". But the Mail fails to pick up on several gaffes in Radio 4's coverage of Seeger. The Times reports that the Today programme had to apologise after it led a story on Seeger with Peter, Paul and Mary's cover version of Where Have All the Flowers Gone? Presenter Justin Webb then compounded the mistake by calling the song If I Had a Hammer. Doubtless the Mail was too busy celebrating "the latest heartening growth figures" to notice.
